    NAP.BIZ's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

    Specifically, NAP.BIZ:

    • Only uses Google user data for the purposes explicitly described in this policy.
    • Does not use Google user data for serving advertisements.
    • Does not allow humans to read Google user data unless we have your affirmative consent, it is necessary for security purposes, to comply with applicable law, or for our internal operations where data has been aggregated and anonymized.
    • Does not transfer Google user data to third parties except as necessary to provide or improve our services, comply with law, or as part of a merger or acquisition with adequate data-protection provisions.

    Account Information

    Full name, email address, and authentication credentials (password or Google OAuth token) provided during registration.

    We use essential cookies for authentication and session management. We do not deploy third-party advertising or tracking cookies without your explicit consent.
